The following FTIC tier groups are historically less well-prepared, and show poorer performance (or drop out) in their first year after entering UWF. This document summarizes their characteristics and looks for any patterns among them.

Overall Tier Scores

Tier 1: score above 92 (old 90)

Tier 2: score above 87 (old 84)

Tier 3: score above 80 (old 77)

Tier 4: score above 72 (old 69)

Tier 5: score below 72 (old 69)

\[Tier score = (higher test score*0.03125) + (12.5*hsgpa capped at 4)\]
